Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

AustraliaBreakfast could have included a wider range of food.
The location was very pleasant. Hotel conveniently situated; breakfast adequate. Small village with a number of suitable restaurants and food outlets. Onsen something that should be experienced but tub in room ideal.

AustraliaThe building itself is a little bit old and the carpets can feel a little musty. But the place seem well cleaned so it wasn't really an issue. Also, if you stayed there for more than 2 nights and had the buffet breakfast, it can get a bit boring. On our second night we didn't book a meal at the hotel and tried to walk around town to eat but many places were closed so we had to settle for a meal that was just okay outside of the hotel as it seemed like the hotel's restaurants were fully booked.
Suimeikan was a comfortable stay halfway through our trip to get away from the hustle and bustle of the bigger cities and enjoy a quiet onsen town. The room was comfortable for 3 people. I particularly liked the tatami mat floor with the futon and the low table. However, I would have liked that area to have the sliding doors close off entirely to have more privacy. I loved that they gave us little snacks every day that they offered at their gift shop downstairs. The staff were friendly and helpful and there was a man able to speak English well to answer questions. The buffet breakfast had a Japanese section and a Western section. We stayed for 2 nights and the breakfast spread was basically the same thing. Would have liked to have some variety. I definitely recommend getting a kaiseki meal at Kita no ryo. The food was amazing and beautifully presented. It was one of our favourite meals in Japan. The flavours were unique and we were so full afterward from it too. We also loved that we had our own private room too. The onsens were great too. With 3 different onsens on site we actually didn't even use our hotel shower once. They were meticulously cleaned and never too busy despite the hotel capacity. We loved that we were able to walk around in our yukatas whenever too. The building itself had really nice gardens/ponds and picturesque areas to take good photos. They also had shuttle buses to and from the station. Though the walk is literally like across the road. It took us less than 5 minutes to walk. When we arrived we saw a man with the Suimeikan sign but we weren't sure if they were meant for us so we just walked. Overall, definitely a recommended stay! Comfortable and not overly priced.

The staff are extremely nice and helpful. A wide spread of breakfast buffet (western and Japanese) and dinner was nicely curated to bring out the best of the local ingredients. The room was spacious and clean. This establishment is walking distance from the train station, and also walking distance to the shops.

United StatesThe room was a ‘little warmer’ than I’d like but that was easily resolved by opening th windows allowing the fresh air of Gifu and the beautiful sounds of Hida river flowing. There really is nothing to ‘not like’ & “everything to love” about the Suimeikan!
We had an Eastern style room with private indoor Onsen, and it was a perfect way to celebrate being together in Japan. The staff and services are superior. The Suimeikan will be seeing us again next year!
